You should look into how the Hololens is able to display floating windows. You're not cut off any more than the physically equivalent monitor would obscure.
A full face headset would probably give off a socially isolating presence, at least today, though.
- ojbyrne 6y agoThe obvious use case is on an airplane (or bus or train).
- csunbird 6y agoI definitely do not want a person flailing hands in their VR world, while sitting near me on an airplane/bus/whatever.
- JKCalhoun 6y agoHmmm... so even at 8K per lens, the floating display(s) is(are) how much of that 8K? So we're back to VGA resolution on your "virtual display". Yeah, no thanks.
- jayd16 6y agoThe FOV of these devices is something like 100 degrees. There's not a lot of wasted space. Who knows what this theoretical Apple device is like though.
- jobigoud 6y agoThe FOV of AR headsets like Hololens is very far from 100°.
- jayd16 6y agoIf the FoV is less then it drives home that the pixel per degree is even higher! This is a closed face VR headset with presumably more traditional screens and lenses and unlike a Hololens or MagicLeap. The device sounds closer to VR headsets like the Vive and Quest, which are mostly around 90-110 degrees.
